BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a cabinet, and more particularly to amultiple function cabinet that particularly has an extendable table andother accessories integrated therein.

2. Description of Related Art

A conventional cabinet only has a single extension structure that cannot provide a writing space once a laptop is mounted on the extensionstructure. Therefore, the conventional cabinet is inconvenient in use.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

To overcome the drawbacks of the conventional cabinet an improvedcabinet is provided to eliminate the drawbacks.

A main objective of the present invention is to provide a cabinet thathas a duplex extension table adapted to provide a locating place forlaptop and a writing place for taking notes, wherein the duplexextension table can be retracted into the cabinet to make the spaceusage flexible.

Another objective of the present invention is to provide a cabinet thatintegrates accessories therein to have more facility in use.

To achieve the foregoing objectives, the cabinet comprises:

a hollow body with an open front and multiple compartments;

a sliding door covering at least one part of the open front;

multiple drawers respectively received in the multiple compartments;

wherein, improvement of the cabinet comprises:

a duplex extension table slidably received inside one of the multiplecompartments and comprising a primary board and a secondary boardretractable combined with each other.

By having the duplex extension table, the cabinet has two individualspaces for coordinate uses.

Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will becomeapparent after a careful reading of the detailed description withappropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

A cabinet in accordance with the present invention comprises a hollowbody with an open front, multiple compartments defined within the body,multiple drawers and a duplex extension table received inside thecompartment, and multiple optional accessories integrated with the body.Wherein, the duplex extension table is retractable received inside thebody via the open front and composed of a primary board and a secondaryboard retractably combined with each other so as to provide twosectional spaces respectively for laptop and note or documents duringworking. Moreover, the accessories attached to the body selectivelyinclude wheel devices, a socket, a wire-reeling disk and at least onestoring container to facilitate the cabinet.

With reference to FIGS. 1 to 3, a preferred embodiment of the cabinetcomprises a hollow body, multiple drawers, a duplex extension table andoptional accessories.

The hollow body is a parallelepiped composed of a top board 1, two sideboards 2, a bottom board 3 and further has four wheel devices 4 attachedto the bottom board 3 outside the body to make the cabinet move easilyand to lift the body from the ground. Each side board 2 has a hook 21 atits top end for suspension. Multiple compartments are defined inside thebody and sequentially arranged with a sliding door 5, the duplexextension table 6 and three drawers 7, 8, 9. A socket assembly 10 isattached to a front face of the bottom board 3 and a wire-reeling disk11 (see FIG. 5) is embedded inside the bottom board 3 for convenientelectricity supply. Moreover, a storing container 12 is slidably mountedunder the bottom board 2 to keep necessary wires or converters etc. whenthe wheel devices 4 are secured under the cabinet.

As shown in FIG. 2, the sliding door 5 is lifted up and pushed into thebody to abut the top board 1 to open an upper portion of the cabinet. Onthe contrary, the sliding door 5 is pulled out of the body and lowereddown to close the upper portion of the cabinet again. Two grooves 22 arerespectively defined on outer faces of the two side boards 2 near thehooks 21 for conveniently driving the cabinet.

As shown in FIG. 3, after lifting the sliding door 5, a primary board 6in the duplex extension table 6 is revealed.

The storing container 12 attached to the bottom board 3 is composed of abox 121, two rails 122, and multiple screws 123 and corresponding nuts124. The two rails 121 are U-shaped and secured to the bottom board 3with their openings facing each other by the screws 123 and nuts 124.The box 121 has two wings 1211 respectively engage the two rails 122 tomake the box slide along the rails 122 for retracting operation.Moreover, a handle (not shown) or an access hole 1212 is defined in afront face of the box 121 for a user to hold the box 121 to pull or pusheasily.

As shown in FIG. 4, the duplex extension table 6 is located at a middleof the cabinet and composed of the primary board 61 and the secondaryboard 62. The primary board 61 is a solid plate and has two ball tracks611 attached to its two sides abutting the side boards 2 of the body.Correspondingly, two ball rails 612 are respectively attached to innerfaces of the two side boards 2 to match with the ball tracks 611 so thatthe primary board 61 enables to slide inward or outward the body (seeFIG. 6). The secondary board 62 is also a solid plate smaller than theone of the primary board 61 and also has two ball rails 621 attached totwo sides abutting two ball tracks 622 that are respectively andoppositely mounted on two sidewalls 623 attached under the primary board61 (as shown in FIG. 7). Therefore, the secondary board 62 can beretracted to overlap and accommodated inside the body with the primaryboard 61. Preferably, the movement direction of the secondary board 62to the primary board 61 is perpendicular to the one of the primary board61 to the body. Additionally, the ball rails and the ball tracks can besubstituted by other rail assemblies in modification.

When the duplex extension table operates, the sliding door 5 is open toallow the primary board 61 being pulled out. Then, the secondary board62 is further extended from the primary board 61. If the user does notneed many spaces for working, the secondary board 62 can be kept underthe primary board 61.

As shown in FIG. 5, the socket assembly 10 attached to the front face ofthe bottom board 3 has a switch and multiple sockets for plugs. Thestoring container 12 is slidably attached under the bottom board 3 bymeans of the two trails 122. The wire-reeling disk 11 is attached withinthe body over the bottom board 3 near a rear corner and contains a wire(not numbered) retractably accommodated inside the wire-reeling disk 11and extending out via the hole on the adjacent side board 2. Inpreferred operation, the wire connects between the socket on the walland the socket assembly 10 on the bottom board to provide a convenientelectricity supply.

By having the duplex extension table 6, the cabinet has two individualspaces for coordinate uses, for example, laptop operation and notewriting at the same time. The accessories attached to the box providemore operational facility to the cabinet.

Although this invention has been described in its preferred form with acertain degree of particularity, it is understood that the presentinvention of the preferred form has been made only by way of example andthat numerous changes in the details of construction and the combinationand arrangement of parts any be resorted to without departing from thespirit and scope of the invention.
